Summary of Activities
Our LC was founded to support and encourage collaboration between staff members who teach on modules that lead to the awards accredited by the Register of Exercise Professionals, Ireland (REPs). In our first year we organised a successful CPD day (June 2019). COVID caused us many issues in the delivery of our modules and the existence of the LC really helped as a collaborative environment. However COVID also prevented us from having any practical CPD or group-learning sessions except for on-line.
We have met 3 times in this academic year and are planning a half day ‘round-table’ CPD event in the new year.
